Can i charge 2 lipos at once?

I got a Hyperion EOS0606I from MaxAmps and i wanted to find out if i could charge 2 lipo packs at once?

I run 2x 2s 5000mah packs in my 1/8th buggy, and well in stead of having to disconnect and reconnect each lipo. Can i just keep the serial adapter on them and charge them both at once?

Just set it to 4s instead of 2s.

I would have to make a 4s split balance tap for it, but that shouldn't be a problem.

It's not recommended. Main reason is that it's a 50 watt maxx charger and you won't see a 5 amp charge rate on a 4S 5000 you'd see like 2 amps if your lucky. And Hyperion warns that there may be balancing issues if done this way. If you need to charge two packs at once it is recommended by both Hyperion and us that you purchase a proper charger like the Hyperion DUO III.
